charley horse feeling

Cleavage1ady · 11-06-2009, 11:11 AM

Hi,
I'm currently 16 days post op and have been having a charley horse feeling on my pectoral muscle on my right impalnt. I have 450 cc saline unders. The cramp like sensation is on the sternal side of the implant. I've been taking vit.e supplements and aggressive massaging to prevent cc. But I am worried. Is this normal? And when will it go away?

Dear Cleavage1ady:

The best thing to do in this situation is to have your plastic surgeon check it out. It may be normal, but it may also be the sign of a problem. The best way to tell which it is, is to be seen.
